What do I do with this?

Hi everybody, welcome to our new feature What do I do with this?  For this challenge our designers will get to try out some of these new tools and share the projects they created using them.  We’ve got some fun, new things coming to the Papertrey Ink store and our designers will show you how to use them so you’ll be comfortable incorporating them into your card-making and gift-giving.  Stay tuned for exciting and creative things coming your way!  We want to share what our designers love with you, and this gives you a first-hand look into their crafty-faves!

This month we are working with WOW embossing powders which are now available  in the store.  Click HERE to see the selection of WOW embossing powders we are now carrying!

Let’s get started!

Adding accents with embossing powder is such a great way to add texture.  Here on the bloom from Lush Bloom, the “third” layer would normally be a darker color of ink but here I’ve added Versamark,  the Sunburst WOW! Embossing Powder, and heat embossing.  This gives this third layer some shine and texture!

I’ve added my bloom to the largest doily from Delicate Doilies Die set with foam adhesive.  The doily was added to a white notecard that was scored to have a raised border around the perimeter. To finish, the sentiment was added to fit in below the bloom along with some sparkling gems.

PRIZE
